How to Fix F9E5 Error (Step-by-Step)

- Remove the screws that are holding the control board in place and gently lift the old board out.
- Position the new electronic control board in the same location and secure it with the mounting screws.
- Reconnect all the wire harnesses to the corresponding terminals on the new board, using your photo as a reference.
- Reassemble the dryer by securing the top panel and any other components you removed, then plug the dryer back into the power outlet to test its functionality.
